Correct Answer: Wavelength


Solution : The correct option is Frequency .

As temperature changes will have an impact on velocity, they will also have an impact on frequency because frequency and sound velocity are inversely related. Temperature fluctuations in the air have an impact on sound propagation in that medium. The characteristics of the medium it passes through, such as temperature, affect the speed of sound. The ideal gas law, which says that the connection between the absolute temperature (T) and the speed of sound (c) in air, may be used to explain this relationship:

c ∝ √T
